Madden NFL 15 announced and dated with debut trailer

The ramp up to this year’s Madden NFL football extravaganza has begun with the release of the debut trailer for Madden NFL 15, as well as the announcement of a traditional August launch date for EA Sports’ next game.

Due for release on August 26th in North America and August 29th in Europe across PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, you can get your first look at Madden NFL 15 with the game’s debut trailer a little ways down the page… but not before learning EA is promising that the game “delivers everything fans need to own their rivals on both sides of the field, including the most immersive defensive gameplay control in franchise history.”

“Like the Super Bowl XLVIII champion Seattle Seahawks,” writes EA, “you can win championships and bask in the glory of success by building a great defense fit to challenge the best offenses in the game.

“Fans will also experience an entirely new broadcast presentation that delivers Madden NFL game day like never before with dramatic all-new camera angles, as well as dynamic pre-game and halftime features.”
